Confusion over ‘kidnapped’ lesbian Syrian blogger

30 minutes and no comments – that must be a record. Are PinkNews commenters so bewildered they are struck dumb? So is there a real blogger, albeit using a false identity? Is it an entrapment blog to identify those in Syria hostile to the regime?

My own feelings on all of this are that identity is certainly important but that FREEDOM is the most important issue of all.

So for me, in the end, it is really fairly irrelevant whether the photos of Amina are real or whether indeed the detail of her name is real, whether her Blog is true or whether she even exists altogether, not that I’m assuming or not assuming any of the above. What does matter is that what has or has not happened to Amina is something that absolutely would happen, and indeed IS happening everyday in Syria. In other words, Amina’s story symbolizes the abuse of human rights in Syria today. Would it therefore be wise not to be so side-tracked with the he-said she-said clutter, and instead to focus on what REALLY matters, which is to bring to the attention of the world the oppression and human rights abuse which the Syrian people, 10,000 of whom are currently ‘detained’ all over the country, are experiencing as I write this?
